I was told many times by friends and also family members...."you can play and teach guitar, go get out of here(M'sia) and go somewhere else, NZ/Australia/wherever you may get a better life and better pay then what you can get here in M'sia. " I heard these same words again and again since i'm 18. Even my dad suggested this.
To answer them it's easy, i'm not the type that will be in a dilemma. I always make my on decision and a fast chump that decide very fast which mislead it to everyone that ask me questions. They seems to think that i did not make any effort in thinking and considering the questions but actually i have gone through it before they even think of suggesting to me.And i will always get the same feedback of my answers, Y U NO DO??? Y U SO WASTE??!! (in their heart i think and assumed that they are thinking that i'm stupid or have knowledge whatsoever)
But the truth is, this might have abit of clash concept because this is only my opinion and concept of my very own, i'm not saying that this are the rule and the correct way, if you guys that is reading and following my blog this far, i know that you are here to seek raw information and point of view from me, I thank you so much and if for you that get offended after reading this i'm so sorry in advance, remember this is only my opinion.
I do not seek for outstation work and stay because i think there's no need to. I'm born here in M'sia and i'm going to stay here even if a comet is goin to drop right next door. I love my country. I love Melaka. If i'm good enough i can make a living here, if i want to prove that i'm very good i can make a fortune here in this very place. They said that the economy is going down, the politics is corrupt , the whole place is goin worst, but for me...my point of view is..M'sia is growing, for a country to move forward and grow, these are the issues and events that need to happen. If we look at the advance countries, we look at how good and well the country is, but we did not go and find out how they become this way. How many president in USA is shot? No corruption in Japan? I'm lucky to be in a growing country where all the fun is rather than a stagnant place where everything is well done and can't go anywhere more, if you like peace and no fun you may be happy there. Anyway i'm a Malaysian, I can do whatever i want to do here, i mean the legal stuffs. I can have my own company here and it doesn't cost me high capital. I know the language here and other stuffs, imagine trying to open a company and do business in Australia? or London? can you survive? Unless you're Jimmy Choo. LOL!! You can only work as a middle class worker in other country than you're own unless again if you're JImmy Choo. LOL (again)
ONe more thing why i don want to work and live outstation, The high pay? no i don't think it's high pay when i don't get to see my family, if i'm a solo guy without anyone that i loved then i don't care what i do or where i am, but in reality, i have a family. A loving family, i wan to spend my weekends with my mum and dad, how long can a human live? if not for 80 years, how long can we spend time with them? another 30 years? 20, 10? if i'm aboard working and seek for a better life, how about them? My friend Raven put it so right,
Dad: Son, it is time for you to go out and learn ppl's life and work. You only have 1 life, you must make the best of it.
Raven: Yes, i only have 1 life, but i would like to take care of you and mum with this 1 life, coz it worth more than anything.
We only have 1 life, i want to see my brothers grow, i want to see them succeed, i want to be there for them. I don't want to be 500 miles away when they are down, when they blow their birthday cake. Being together worth more than giving a call from aboard saying Happy Birthday. I want to be there for my parents when they need me, i want to make them happy , i want to show them ... all the care and effort they put is worth... I'm a dad too.. i understand what a dad really want to see. I hope my son will succeed, i hope he will have a better life, Parents are so unconditional but what can a son do? Succeed and go away? come home for CNY? how many CNY can your dad survive? give money every month to them by paypal? As a son i try to think how to be successful and being with them here and now. This is what i'm spending my whole life working on. I want to be successful here, i want to be with my loved ones.
They said it's impossible, i say it is possible.
What the mind and conceive , The Mind can achieve.
People work so hard to earn money, i work so hard to be with my loved ones.
Different people, different walk of life, different perspective of life.
This is my Way of Life,
Protect My Pack, Grow my Colonies, Kill any enemies.
